british betty Posted March 20, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I know the position of the cabin is supposed to be better, and of course, its more expensive, but do you get anything , different, more ? Any response is gratefully accepted :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any response is gratefully accepted :o A D category cabin is larger than an E. Which ship are you looking at? You can see the deck plans for every ship on http://www.rccl.com :) Those plans will also tell you the square footage of each type of cabin.

mamaza Posted March 20, 2009 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I've had both on Voyager class ships and the size is smaller on the E1 but it's minor and barely noticable. And I don't agree that location of D1 is always better. My E2 was a hump, and I think the aft 7388 is an E1 cabin and I'd love that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of changing from corner hump to aft...possibly by the time I've made my mind up, I wont have the option!:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted March 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Have the deck plans in front of you when you book/change your cabin. Never book "blind"! Personally, I'd rather be in the hump area than aft....those are some really, really long hallways, so if you tend to run back and forth to your cabin, it's a true pain in the a**!

british betty Posted March 20, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted March 20, 2009 We've checked the deck plans and we are not bothered by the long walk. I was just wondering if you get any "extras" in a D1 as opposed to the E1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No extras, however, I much prefer the larger sofa in the sitting area.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marci22 Posted March 20, 2009 #8 Share Posted March 20, 2009 No extras, just a bit bigger cabin. I find that the E category typically offers the best value compared to OV and D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of changing from corner hump to aft...possibly by the time I've made my mind up, I wont have the option!:o Which itinerary? If it's Alaska, go with the aft! If you are booking this early, you do have four decks to choose from, so hopefully, you'll be able to snag one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
british betty Posted March 21, 2009 Author #10 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Thank you all for your valued information and opinions. The price difference in the two cabins has now increased so we'll stay where we are in our corner hump and use that extra for an excursion ( or two). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridaythe13th Posted March 21, 2009 #11 Share Posted March 21, 2009 The E is fine. Actually one year we got a D and were really excited about the extra space only to find there wasn't much difference. The D is about 25 sq ft bigger, maybe a foot wider and 2-3 feet deeper? No extra perks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSDispatcher Posted March 21, 2009 #12 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Just what I wanting to know without having to start a thread.....would I prefer the hump or aft on an Alaskan Cruise.
